Wellum I finally found something on the Seal of Solomon, but it -- it's really weird.
Yeah.
Hit me! [ Sniffs .]
All right.
“Then Mighty Solomon commanded unto his priests, “'Bind my seal.
' But the jewel was of the cosmos.
” “Jewel of the cosmos”? What does that mean? I don't know.
Maybe a-a meteorite? Mm.
Yeah, maybe.
Well, forget what it is.
Where the hell would that be? It doesn't say.
Okay, so, we've got blood of a holy man, we've got fruit from the Tree of Life, but this piece of Kryptonite, we've been through every book in this place and we got squat.
Yeah.

[ Snoring .]

Oh, come on.
Are you kidding me? Dean! S-- Hey.
Are you serious? What? Oh.
It's hilarious.
Forget that.
Look.
The Men of Letters found it.
[ Box thuds .]
Solomon's treasure.
Where? 1917, in what is modern day Israel.
According to this, they dug it up.
And, uh, here, look at the, uh, right there.
[ Taps table .]
Uh, “among the items found -- a crystal that glowed with an unearthly light.
” That's gotta be the seal, right? It's gotta be.
Where is it? Uh, uh, it says that they took it to, uh, Cap-- “Capitalum” Seven in Portsmouth, Rhode Island.
Capitulum Seven.
Yeah.
Capitulum means, uh, “chapterhouse.
” Yeah.
So the Men of Letters has -- has only one bunker, but they have smaller outposts all over the place.
Capitulum One is in Jamestown.
Capitulum Seven, I guess, is in Portsmouth, Rhode Islandla There it is.

Probably not.
Look Let's go! [ Engine revs .]

Yes.
Thank God you found me.
No, no, no, no.
Asmodeus is busy.
Then why did he call for me? Don't know.
Ask him yourself when he's ready, which he isn't, because he's busy, so Might you have something to read? [ Cover clanks .]
[ Airplane engines roaring overhead .]
That'snot possible.
It's true.
Sandy, it's 2018.
You were down there for almost 100 years.
No.
You're lying.
[ Train whistle blowing in distance .]
Sandy, I know it's a lot to take in, okay? But Well, look, this is -- this what a car looks like now.

[ Muffled whimper .]
[ Inhales deeply .]
My boy.
[ Grunts .]
I called you 'cause you work for me.
And I need you when I need you.
That's not our arrangement, and I'm not the help.
This is a freelance contract.
So be a good lad and wait.
[ Whoosh .]
[ Speaks indistinctly .]
Amy.
Hey, Buck.
Have you decided what you want? Buck: Yeah.
I'd like to try something different.
Poor Buck.
He comes in here bird-dogging after Amy, and she won't give him a simple yes or no.
Well, whatever you think, Amy.
I mean, you know better than me.
Amy: So many.
Still, if Amy don't want any, I'll go a few rounds with that boy.
Buck: Yeah, bring it on.
[ Laughing .]
Ohh.
I like talking with you, Marco.
You make me laugh.
[ Indistinct conversations .]
Sit anywhere you like, hon.

[ Pushes buttons .]
[ Jay Ramsey's “Better Luck Next Time” playing .]
Folks, what'll it be? Uh, well, what's good? Well, people love the Clam Cakes, but if you ask me, gotta try the Stuffies.
I don't know what Stuffies are.
I'll take two.
And the Clam Cakes.
Anything to drink? - Uh, water will be great.
- Oh, that's exciting.
It comes with a lemon.
You sure you can handle that? [ Chuckles .]
How 'bout you, sweetie? Oh, my goodness.
You're all skin and bones.
When's the last time you ate somethin'? Sam: You know, let's get her the, uh, the -- the meat loaf.
But if you'd only look at me I'd show you how true love can be [ Dialing .]
[ Rings .]
[ Beep .]
Marco? We got a problem.
Yes, we do.
A very big problem.
I don't how How am I still alive? Um we don't really know yet.
Andand how are you so calm about the fact that I'm still alive? [ Front door closes .]
This kind of weird.
It's sort of our thing.
I-I don't know what that means.
It means we can help you.
[ Bell dings .]
We just have to, um You know what? Let's start with the basics.
How did you get down there in the first place? I met this man.
He said that he was [ Inhales deeply .]
a part of a secret club.
I thought he was talking about a speakeasy or something.
But he called it Men ofWords? Men of Letters? Yes.
How -- how did you know that? Like I said, it's sort of our thing.
Wait a second.
So these Men of Letters, they were the ones who -- who chained you down there? [ Voice breaks .]
I think.
I-I Sandy, whatever happened down there, you're safe now, okay? We'll protect you.
I promise.
There was chanting Cultists: Insanidox Koth Munto.
[ Shackles clank .]
[ Gasps .]
Please.
Please.
And then there was this light.
Yokoth! Yokoth! Yokoth! Yokoth! Like a rip in the air.
And it happened [ Gasps .]
[ Growling .]
[ Shouts .]
They were using me to [ Whispering .]
to feed it.
To feed what? The monster.
Sure I can't get you any coffee? Excuse me.
Sweetie, you okay? [ Indistinct conversations .]
[ Doors close .]
Mr.
Ketch.
Sorry to keep you waitin'.
Why am I here? The pieces to a spell.
A real big magic sort of affair.
I've heard.
Their pet angel was just in the Holy Land.
You knew and didn't tell me? You didn't ask.
I shouldn't have to ask.
I was merely gathering intelligence.
In the future, you let me fill in the blanks.
The last prophet that checked out of here said they was trying to open up a portal to another, even more epically messed up world.
To do that, they need ingredients.
We need to stop 'em.
Ingredients? Such as? Well, if they got the spell from the Demon Tablet, which they did -- some blood, few other things, and a whole mess of archangel grace.
[ Muffled grunts .]
Ah.
And here you are, pumping it into your veins.
Everyone needs a little pick me up from time to time.
[ Scoffs .]
But enough about my juice box.
It's time we talk about us.
You see [ Clears throat .]
I don't believe you understand the nature of this relationship.
You pay me, I do what needs to be done.
End of transaction.
Yeah.
See, no.
It's more like, I own you.
You don't o-- And it's time you get in line, boy.
If that's how you feel, I believe I'm done here.
Good day.
Hmm.
[ Muffled grunt .]
You're done when I say you're done.
[ Groans, grunts .]
[ Laughs .]
Ooh.
[ Groans .]
[ Whoosh .]
[ Gasping .]
You're gonna learn, son.
You do what I say [ Muffled grunts .]
when I say! And if you ever even think about sassing me again Ah.
Look what you did to my suit.
Okay, what the hell, man? I mean [ Mutters .]
we tested her for everything -- holy water, silver, she passed it all, so Yeah, and she's been down in a basement for 90 years.
How does she look the way she does? And this doesn't sound like the Men of Letters either.
I mean, they're boring.
They wear tweed.
They smoke from pipes.
They -- they they don't kidnap people.
Except apparently, they did.
Oh, and this, uh, the -- the -- the flash of light Sandy talks about seeing, the “rip in the air,” sounds like -- Like a rift.
So what now? They're opening doors to different worlds and -- and Buffalo Billing chicks? And feeding a monster.
Sonot boring after all.
But all the Men of Letters died 60 years ago.
Longer than that.
So then, who's been keeping her down there? [ Bell dings .]
You know what? How 'bout this? You stay here with Sandy.
I'll go back -- No, no, no, no.
What? What? I'm not gonna let you go back there by yourself.
- Dean -- - No, this is what we're gonna do.
We're gonna find Sandy a motel room.
We're gonna teach her how to use the TV.
Well, we're gonna have to tell her what a TV is.
- And then we're gonna go back together.
- Here we go.
Lobster roll, no bun, and kale salad for you, String Bean.
Kale's a garnish.
It's healthy.
I'm watching my cholesterol, like you should be.
Yeah, I'm watching my cholesterol.
Watching it go up.
Well, I guess I will see you [ Inhales deeply .]
later.
All right.
[ Register beeps .]
What the hell? - Clam Cakes.
- Dean: Mmm.
Two orders of Stuffies.
See? Garnish.
And meat loaf for our young lady.
Buck: Hey.
Something weird's going on.
Sam.
[ Coughs .]
Go get Sandy.
[ Clears throat, inhales sharply .]
[ Distorted, echoing voice .]
Sam? Sam? Hey.
Hey! Hey! [ Grunts, groans .]
[ Sighs .]
[ Thud .]
[ Bathroom door closes .]
Wait -- wait Sandy! What's going on? Hey.
Wait.
Wait.
What's [ Electricity crackles .]
Buck: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Hey! Hey! Hey! Sandy: Aah! Sandy! Come here.
Sit down.
- Amy: Buck! [ Punch lands.]
- [ Buck groans .]
[ Amy screams .]
[ Dishes shatter .]
[ Pots and pans clatter, bottles shatter .]
Ah! - Dean? - Sammy! Dean.
Hey! What are you doing? [ Squish .]
[ Thud .]
[ Door creaks .]
Sammy! [ Gun cocks .]
They're still out there.
We gotta call the police.
My phone's not working.
They're all dead.
Landline, too.
Who's that? The police.
[ Door creaks .]
What are you doing? They took my brother.
I'm gonna get him back.
[ Fabric rustles .]
Who are you? What do you want? What you stole from us.
The monster.
The what? Less a monster, more a god.
A Wait, what are you talkin' about? How'd you find our chapterhouse? My -- my brother and I, we -- we're, uh our family was Men of Letters.
So was ours.
Kinda.
Kinda? Our great-grandfather, Diego Avila, was a member.
Well, until he -- He went psycho.
Jim Jones style.
Pretty much.
Diego fought in World War I, and after that, all he could see was blood and violence in this world, so he decided to fix it.
How? Summon a god from another dimension and start over.
“Upon us we shall call forth new gods, “Yokoth and her mate Glythur.
“And they will cleanse this world of hate and bring a new paradise.
” Marco: They summoned Yokoth, but [ Growling .]
didn't exactly bring paradise.
[ Screams .]
[ Muffled scream .]
It ate Diego and most everyone else.
Then it tried to summon its mate before they bound it.
Marco: Men of Letters disavowed the whole deal.
It banned all the survivors, closed down the chapterhouse tight.
Our grandparents, our parents, us, we've been watching over it ever since.
You mean Sandy? [ Humming .]
[ Grunts softly .]
[ Sighs contentedly .]
[ Inhales deeply .]
[ Asmodeus exhales slowly .]
You think you're so high and mighty, better than the rest of us.
But you, Mr.
Ketch, you are more wicked than any demon I know.
I know 'em all.
At least I still have a soul.
[ Chuckles .]
What you think that buys you, huh? Souls are messy, all conflict and confusion.
Well, I know who I am.
Do you? Because you say you have this code, this Men of Letters code, handed down for centuries.
But wait.
Wait a minute.
You work for me.
You act like you're this cold-blooded killer.
But you know what I see when I look in your eyes? Fear.
And regret.
And pain.
[ Grunts .]
I see your chewy middle, boy.
You want redemption, but you ain't never gonna get it.
Your kind -- our kind -- we can't be redeemed.
All we can do is spread our pain around.
So no, you don't know who you are.
But I do.
Which is why no matter where you go, no matter what you do, you're mine.
Are they gone? Someone -- someone should see if they're gone.
No.
No, not happening.
You're trying to tell me Sandy is a god from another dimension? All she wants to do is eat.
And breed.
Then why didn't you kill it? You don't think we've tried? As far as we know, she can't die.
So we have been keeping her locked up.
Well, that is, until you came along.
So, you know, nice work on that one.
When we saw what you did, we knew that we had to get her back.
So Marco slipped something into your food.
Oh, you don't say.
We have been starving Yokoth for decades, keeping her weak.
But if she gets food in her belly We're all dead.
Hey.
[ Growls .]
[ Grunts .]
[ Screaming .]
[ Gun cocks .]
[ Slurps, purrs .]
Dean: Sandy? [ Inhales sharply, grungr softly .]
[ Exhales sharply .]
[ Tooth cracks .]
Ohh! [ Squish .]
[ Grunts, gags .]
Oh.
[ Crack .]
[ Spits .]
[ Sighs deeply .]
[ Pants .]
What are you looking at? If I had half your power, I'd In fact [ Muffled grunting .]
I believe it's time to go.
[ Metal creaking .]
[ Grunts .]
[ Gate clanks .]
Consider this a rescue.
[ Muffled grunting continues .]
[ Creaks .]
Come on, you.
Come on! [ Muffled shouting .]
[ Panicked muffled grunting .]
Come on.
This would all go so much faster if you just flapped your bloody wings.
What the hell? [ Blade stabs .]
[ Screaming .]
Where were we? [ Muffled grunting .]
Aah! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! String Bean.
[ Gasps .]
I-I thought you were dead.
No, not yet.
Where's my brother? He came out to check on Buck.
It's them.
No, take it easy.
They're with us.
What? It's a long story.
Sam: Oh, no.
No, no, no.
She got food in her belly.
Dean.
If she fed on him, he would be here.
So what, then? It's like we said -- if she's not feeding, she's breeding.
[ Pestle clinking, crushing .]
Sandy, what the hell? Sandy's dead.
She's been dead for a long time.
Okay.
I'll play.
What's your name? [ Deep, distorted voice .]
Yokoth.
[ Normal voice .]
Star of Madness.
Ravager of Galaxies.
Mother of Faceless Hordes.
Cool.
Let me guess.
You're not from around here.
I'm really not.
[ Metal box clatters .]
When the foolish humans open the door, they had no idea what was waiting for them on the other side.
You mean you? I mean us.
It was supposed to be us.
Glythur and I, together.
But my loveThey shut the riff before he could make it through.
Oh, my god.
That's tragic.
It's like a Hallmark movie.
But with tentacles.
I like you, Dean.
You're strong.
And I enjoy looking at your face.
Whew.
You're making me blush.
That's why I'm going to allow you to be Glythur's host.
Sorry, what? The host? We've consumed most of our universe, but this one is so full of [ Cork pops .]
light.
[ Cork squeaks .]
And of life.
[ Humming .]
Y And it looks It looks delicious.
Okay, look, I don't know what kind of kinky Gatekeeper-Keymaster thing you got going on here, but [ Whispers .]
I think I'll pass.
Shh.
[ Muffled grunting .]
Insanidox Koth Munto, Glythur! Insanidox Koth Munto, Glythur! [ Growls .]
[ Grunting .]
[ Gunshots .]
[ Exhales sharply, grunts .]
She has the Seal of Solomon! You can't kill me! [ Shackle unlocks .]
[ Grunts .]
Panto Koth Munto! [ Growls .]
No! Aah! [ Sandy gasps .]
[ Growls .]
Aah! [ Exhaling sharply .]
Dean.
[ Exhales sharply .]
[ Groans .]
Glad you could make it.
So [ Sighs.]
that's why we came.
I mean, we -- we -- we need the seal to get our family back.
If it could take us somewhere other than, uh, tentacle porn land -- not that there's anything wrong with that.
When you cast a spell, you need a guide, something that's been where you need to go.
Marco: Got it? Got it.
Careful.
When you open the door, it only stays open for 24 hours.
And you never know what's on the other side.
Well, whatever it is, we'll be ready.
I hope you're right.
[ Hatch closes .]
[ Dean groans .]
[ Chuckles .]
You sure you're all right? [ Chuckles .]
Considering I was about three seconds away from being an interdimensional booty call, yeah, I'd say I'm all right.
[ Chuckles .]
Well we have the Seal.
Right? So all we need now is an archangel, and we're set.
Sure, that sounds easy.
[ Chuckles .]
Yeah.
- Ketch: Wait.
- Dean: Son of a bitch.
[ Guns cock .]
I come in peace.
Yeah, right.
And I brought you a gift.
Wait a second.
Is that That Gabriel? No, no, that's impossible.
He He's dead.
Wewe saw him die.
Or did you? What did you do to him? Not me.
Asmodeus.
The Prince was holding him prisoner until I liberated the poor man.
And I understand you may need an archangel for a spell, perhaps.
Well, what luck.
We need his grace.
[ Panicked muffled shouting .]
No, no, no, no, no.
Calm down.
Calm down.
[ Muffled shouting stops .]
[ Muffled grunting .]
Nervy.
Here.
Take that.
And, uh Mm.
The archangel blade.
Why would you What's the catch? What do you want? Protection.
From Asmodeus.
The one you're working for? Was working for.
But when he finds out that I stole his prize milk cow, well, I imagine that he'll hunt me to the ends of the Earth.
So this is the only safe place I know.
[ Scoffs .]
What? Do you think you're just gonna move in? Dibs on the top bunk? - No.
- Deal.
What? I don't know what the hell's going on here.
But if this helps us get Mom back, helps us get Jack back, thensure.
Whatever you want.
[ Muffled grunt .]
GabrielMan, what happened to you? All right, let's do this.
[ Grunts .]
Well, shouldn't we wait? Wait? Why? We got everything we need.
Everything else is just burning daylight.
Come on.
Let's open this door.
All right.
[ Sighs .]
I'll gather my gear.
Uhhold on.
I'm heading in alone.
What? Look, we got a busted up archangel here.
And who the hell knows what else? Okay? Somebody's gotta stay here just in case.
And I'm coming with you.
As I said, Asmodeus will be hunting me to the ends of the Earth, so it's better if I'm not on this Earth.
It's not that much better over there.
You know it's a war zone, right? Won't be my first, shan't be my last.
Hmm? Fine.
Fine? So you want Ketch to go and not me? I don't care if he dies.
Hell, I'm kind of rootin' for it.
Still, you can't -- No, I have to.
It takes something that's been over there before to open up the right door, so that's either you or me.
So I'm gonna go.
And if something happens to me, if -- if -- if time runs out, then I need you to come and save me and save Mom and save whoever else, okay? It's safer if we go together.
Oh, there's no such thing as safer over there.
You know that.
I know you don't like this, okay? I don't expect you to.
This is the way it's gonna be.
Something that's been there, right? [ Whoosh .]
All right.
Remember, it's only 24 hours.
Koth Munto Notox.
Okay.
